14 Dec. 2015 : Rafa Nadal Foundation opened in Palma de Mallorca the first own Center, where the organization of the tennis player promotes the project of education and sport for socially disadvantaged children children 6 -16 years old.

The ceremony was attended Rafa Nadal and president of the Foundation, his mother Anna Maria Parera.

Rafa said that "this project is especially important to us for several reasons: firstly, it's a hundred percent project of Rafa Nadal Foundation, and secondly, it combines education, sport and children, and also this project that is carried out in Mallorca, on our land. "

Rafa's very happy for opening the 1st own center of his Foundation in Mallorca. He says that if things go well, they'll keep on growing.
About IPTL he says it's not simply an exho. Despite the laughs, lack of pressure or having a team, it's served well for his 2016 preparation.
Rafa says on Dec 30 he'll leave for Abu Dhabi, where he'll play 2 matches. Then Doha & then 1.5 weeks in Melbourne preparing for AO. After the AO, he'll play in Rio. He won't return to Mallorca after Rio, even if there are 2 free weeks before IW because it's the time of the year w/ colder weather in Mallorca & cold weather isn't good for his practice, as it can favor injuries. He'll stay somewhere over there to train
